#BIRTHDAY: Basim from Denmark is 31 today The home entrant in a contest, as we’ve discussed before, gets the best and worst of the deal when they get up on that stage. They don’t get to travel, but they get that huge home support. When you’re singing for […]

#BIRTHDAY: Piera Martell from Switzerland is 80 today The 1970s. An interesting time when our contest was a light entertainment show and all done in one evening. And arguably the decade in which the greatest ever act to emerge, well, emerged. It was 1974 and we were in […]
#BIRTHDAY: Catherine Ferry from France is 70 today It’s good to have a really good look back in time to those earlier contests. The days of simplicity, when a singer had to actually sing, with fancy-schmancy backdrops and pre-recorded backing vocals. In 1976, we saw our friends in […]

#BIRTHDAY: Maxi Garden from Germany is 49 today Duos come in strange pairings sometimes. We’ve had the lovers, the siblings, the twins, and the people put together as a result of a TV talent show. But then there is another type of duo. This is the parent and […]
#BIRTHDAY: Kristina Hautala from Finland is 75 today Do you think it’s true that some languages sound easier on the ear than others? French songs did well in the early days, before English came along. Other languages, however, never really seemed to hit the mark. Today’s birthday girl […]
#BIRTHDAY: Michael Ball from the UK is 61 today Runner-up day today. There’s been plenty of them through the years. Only one year – to my knowledge – has no runner-up. It’s a good place if you’re a host broadcaster’s entry for many reasons. And back in the […]

#BIRTHDAY: Cleo from Poland is 40 today The end of another week and another birthday. This could be a high point in presentation of songs. They can be talking points in themselves, even if the song doesn’t quite hit the mark. This song you’ll see was technically by […]
